Thank You Notes

THANK YOU CARDS

Simply upload your high resolution photos when you place you order. Alternatively, reply to the order confirmation email and attach the photograph(s) you want to use, or send us a link to a Google Drive folder/Dropbox Folder.

We want your photos to look incredible! Unfortunately, sites like Facebook compress photos that are uploaded to them. If you’ve screenshotted photos or saved them from your photographer’s page or pinched them from a friend’s uploads, the quality can be a bit hit or miss. Try and get the original high resolution photos directly from your photographer where possible.

Typically, these cards are sent two to three months after your wedding. Don’t panic if you’ve left it longer than that though. Wedding thank you cards are typically sent out up to a year after your wedding to all guests that attended on the day, plus anyone who gave you a wedding gift. So you have time to weigh up your options, get your wedding photos back and consider what to say in your thank you cards.

Writing a message for your wedding thank you notes can be tricky – communicating your gratitude and excitement over and over again can be hardword! So check out some thank you card wording ideas to help. 

 

Selecting the right invitation

Look through our online shop to find the pre-designed stationery pieces you are interested in. You can also use the search function (a magnifying glass at the top right of each page) or browse by the different categories (colour, style, suite design).

If you’d love to get an idea of the print quality, card options and colours, then order a sample pack. Each sample pack includes a selection of designs plus a set of the card swatches we use & refer to during the ordering process.

You will be assigned a personal designer. She will help ensure your wedding invitation cards say just the right thing, guiding you on appropriate etiquette if needed. We are here to help!

Our blog post series on Wording Wedding Invitations is also great starting point.

Yes. Custom design bookings need to be made in advance as we only take on small numbers of custom clients to ensure you have our full attention and fresh ideas.

We’ve got years of experience in designing for a wide range of people and their special events, so our bespoke packages incorporate all the essentials: extra revisions, printed samples, deluxe envelopes and an overnight courier once you’ve locked in your design.

Ensure you’ve had a thorough look through our designs, as you can pick an existing design and tweak the colours and fonts to suit. You still receive the same great service and attention to detail as a custom-design client, but with a faster turnaround.

Yes, absolutely! The Wedding Invitation Sample Pack comes with your choice of three wedding invitation designs, and includes our full range of card swatches.

If you would like to see a printed version of your wedding invitations, save the dates, engagement party invitations or thank you cards before we print the whole run, then order a Printed Proof.

Once the digital design is finalised, we’ll send you the physical printed proof for your inspection. You’ll have the opportunity to check the colours, verify that they align with your expectations, and ensure the cardstock perfectly complements your envisioned design.

We have a curated selection of our favourite cardstocks to give your wedding stationery the best possible finish.

The best card option will depend on the design, print method and colours of your invitation.

Details about the card options we offer can be found here.

We take pride in offering you the highest quality products for your special day. One of the ways we ensure this is by only using FSC-Certified cardstocks. We believe that this choice brings numerous advantages that contribute to both the beauty of your invitations and the well-being of our planet. More information on what this means is available here.

All orders are placed through the website. Whether you want a quote or if you are ready to order,  navigate to the particular product you are interested in.

Once you’ve selected your design, select the extras you require (information cards, upgraded envelopes and/or magnets, paper clips etc).

The ‘Quantity’ field is where you indicate the number required (remember to allow for spares) and click “Add to Cart”.

Complete your contact details and the website will calculate the exact cost including shipping for you. When you are ready to place you order, select a payment option and submit payment.
